Then what? Is the crime less horrendous?

Let's say a girl is raped - in part, not because he dislikes the girl's race, but because the perp actually prefers and likes that race...

Is this crime less grievous than if she was raped because he hated her race?

I think not. Both are worthy of life in prison.

Re: Another Innocent Dead 17 yr Old

Another thing Jermyn...

Since you seem to make it a point to mention that 17 year olds are little boys or kids...

could you at least acknowledge that males six ft tall may appear to be "men" when the US average male height is 5' 9.5"?

I've already addressed this type of question a few posts back.
No it is not less horendous at all.
However, it appears you have missed my point.

The personal racial prejudices of the perpetrators contributed to the deaths of the two 17 year old kids in question.

Furthermore, when discussing our military men, look at how often has the phrase been used, "Bring our boys back home." Truly, at 17, these boys don't know what it is to live or to be a man yet.


Their young lives have been cut short, not even old enough to serve in our military, not old enough to drink or vote, they were unarmed and murdered.

What a pathetic statement. Since the charges against Zimmerman don't stand on their own merit, you have to resort to these kinds of tactics. Since Zimmerman obviously is a liberal Democrat, that proves he's off his rocker. But neither that, nor any perversions in his past have any bearing on whether or not he murdered Martin.

Many innocent people in this country every year have their lives destroyed over false charges of racism. I'm talking about people who don't have questionable things in their past like Zimmerman. Will you defend them?

zim was not capable of being a racist by himself, however his racial prejudice played a role in his response and ultimately the death of Martin.

Let's see, the black, Hispanic, jewish hybrid Zimmerman, who was well thought of in the black community, who went to bat for blacks in the past, suddenly decided to kill a black kid. Yep. Makes perfect sense to me. Obviously, what is most important and worriesome to you, is the a black kid died. Black people are of more worth to you than other human beings.
